Dana White thanks John Oliver for ‘UF-Sea’ idea, but ‘I’m not giving you a cut’

“Look at me Dana. Why didn’t you just call it UF-Sea? It’s perfect.”

Those were the words of advice offered by Last Week Tonight host John Oliver during a recent episode of his HBO series when discussing the UFC’s plans for “Fight Island.”

Earlier this week, the promotion filed several trademarks for “UF-Sea” as the promotion prepares to take cards to “Fight Island” in the very near future.

The UFC president was happy to credit Oliver for a great idea, although he probably shouldn’t be holding his breath for any residual payments.
